Colour

Colour is an element of design with endless variety.
Colour is a mixture of 3 primary colours, red, yellow and blue.
Secondary colours are a mis of 2 primary colours, orange, green and purple.
In class I ask students to do a Colour Wheel - they were requested to do a wheel in Textiles or paper so here are some creative examples from past students at Marden Senior College.

Wendy Carmen - Applique and Stitch
